I agree with most of it, but definitely not the part about Claude3 being “meh.” Claude3 Opus is an amazing model and is extremely good at coding in Python. The ability to handle massive context has made it mostly replace GPT4 for me day to day.
Sounds like everyone eventually concludes that Langchain is bloated and useless and creates way more problems than it solves. I don’t get the hype.
Claude is indeed an amazing model, the fact that Sonnet and Haiku are so good is a game changer - GPT4 is too expensive and GPT3.5 is very mediocre. Getting 95% of GPT4 performance for GPT3.5 prices feels like cheating.
+1 for Claude Opus, it had been my go to for the last 3 weeks compared to GPT4. The generated texts are much better than GPT4 when it comes to follow the prompt.
I also tried the API for some financial analysis of large tables, the response time was around 2 minutes, still did it really well and timeout errors were around 1 to 2% only.
How are you sending tabular data in a reliable way. And what is the source document type? I'm trying to solve this for complex financial-related tables in PDFs right now.
